TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

According to writer/producer/director John Singleton, when the 1992 Los Angeles riots occurred during filming, Tupac Shakur left the set to participate in the protest. He returned to the set in time for filming.

Tupac Shakur got into a heated verbal altercation with an extra and a group of men on the set. The extra, who was a member of the Rollin 20s Bloods said that the 21-year-old Shakur flashed Crip gang signs at him before pulling out a 40 caliber pistol. No other extras on set witnessed the incident which took place in July 1992. Tupac later stated that the confrontation was over him standing up for a female friend who was allegedly robbed by the Bloods. After Shakur made physical threats toward the extra, Maya Angelou pulled Shakur aside and calmed him down

When Justice is driving in her car in the beginning, she passes Crenshaw square on Crenshaw Boulevard and you will see the damage to the shopping center from the Los Angeles riots, which occurred during filming.

The poetry that Justice writes was actually written by Maya Angelou. Angelou made a cameo appearance as Aunt June.

Ice Cube was offered the role of Lucky, but refused because he claimed that he was not at a point in his career where he would play in a romantic movie and also since he was already committed to the film Trespass
